(1) The Legendre symbol and Euler's criterion. (1 pt each) Let p be an odd prime and a Z an integer which is not divisible by p. The integer a is called a quadratic residue modulo p if there is b E Z such that a b2 (p), i.e., if a has a square root modulo p. Otherwise a is called a quadratic non-residue.

7.6 Theorem. Let p be a prime. Then half the numbers not congruent to 0 modulo p in any complete nesidue system modulo p are quadratic residuess modulo p and half are quadratic non-residues modulo p. From clementary school days, we have known that the product of a pos- itive number and a positive number is positive, a positive times a negative is negative, and the product of two negative numbers is positive....
